Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
2. The method of claim 1, wherein the reset sequence includes a handshake between the local SMU and a device driver of the virtual machine.
3. The method of claim 1, wherein the initiating bypasses a hypervisor of the processing system.
4. The method of claim 1, wherein the processing unit comprises a plurality of semiconductor dies, and wherein the processing portion of the processing unit comprises one of the plurality of semiconductor dies.
5. The method of claim 1, wherein the processing unit is spatially partitioned into a plurality of processing portions comprising the processing portion.
6. The method of claim 4, wherein the reset sequence comprises a reset sequence to reset the one of the plurality of semiconductor dies independent of resetting other semiconductor dies of the plurality of semiconductor dies.
7. The method of claim 5, wherein each of the plurality of processing portions is assigned to a different one of a plurality of virtual functions comprising the virtual function.
9. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 8, wherein the reset sequence omits a handshake between the virtual function and a host driver of a processing system.
10. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 8, wherein the processing unit comprises a graphics processing unit (GPU).
11. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 8, wherein the reset condition comprises a detected error at the processing portion of the processing unit.
12. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 10, wherein the GPU comprises a plurality of GPU chiplets, and wherein the processing portion corresponds to one of the plurality of GPU chiplets.
13. The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 12, wherein the processing portion comprises a render engine assigned to the virtual machine.
15. The processing system of claim 14, wherein the reset sequence includes a handshake between the local SMU and a device driver of the virtual machine.
16. The processing system of claim 14, wherein the processing unit comprises a plurality of semiconductor dies, and wherein the processing portion of the processing unit comprises one of the plurality of semiconductor dies.
17. The processing system of claim 14, wherein the processing unit is spatially partitioned into a plurality of processing portions.
18. The processing system of claim 15, wherein the reset sequence bypasses a hypervisor of the processing system.
19. The processing system of claim 16, wherein the reset sequence comprises a reset sequence to reset the one of the plurality of semiconductor dies independent of other semiconductor dies of the plurality of semiconductor dies.
20. The processing system of claim 17, wherein each of the plurality of processing portions is assigned to a different one of a plurality of virtual functions.
